Chapter 157: Withdraw Immediately

It was originally just a simple message, but because of Qin Lanyin's different identity, this message became particularly eye-catching.

Soon, this news overtook Yun Jin’s previous video and became the number one trending search.

"Have you noticed, from this conversation, that Qin Lanyin and Mu Lingfeng seem to be very familiar with each other?" said a netizen.

"They must be familiar with each other, otherwise, how could they have attended the welcoming party for Qin Lanyin's return that day, arm in arm?"

Another netizen who seemed to know something replied.

"Welcoming banquet, what happened? Tell me quickly."

"That's it. Tell us now."

"I want to know that, too."

As soon as that netizen finished speaking, many people tagged him and asked him to tell the details of the welcoming banquet.

That welcoming banquet was a small gathering of the entertainment industry. Without the organizer's permission, no media dared to post the video of that day on the Internet. It is understandable that everyone is curious about it.

Seeing that everyone was so curious about this, the netizen realized that he had said the wrong thing and immediately went offline, causing everyone to sigh.

"Isn't Qin Lanyin already engaged? Why didn't she attend the welcoming party with her fiancé? Why did she let Mu Lingfeng accompany her? The two of them were even holding hands. Could it be that they have some hidden relationship?"

No one told the truth, so a netizen started to speculate.

"Stop talking nonsense. Our Yinyin is such a good person, how could she do something like playing both sides?" said a fan of Qin Lanyin unconvinced.

"I didn't say that, you said it yourself." The netizen retorted to her.

"You don't know that it was actually Mu Lingfeng who had been pursuing Qin Lanyin, but she turned a blind eye to it and never agreed to Mu Lingfeng's request. I think that this time, Mu Lingfeng saw that Qin Lanyin's fiancé was not there, so he took the initiative to ask to accompany her to the welcoming banquet."

Seeing this, Yun Jin turned off her phone. She didn't have the courage to face how deeply Mu Lingfeng loved Qin Lanyin.

Although Yun Jin turned off her phone, the online discussion continued:

"I heard that Qin Lanyin's fiancé Qian Zile's Yongsheng company has not performed well in the past two years. Do you think Qin Lanyin is attracted by Mu Lingfeng's good development in the past two years and wants to dump Qian Zile and be with Mu Lingfeng?"

"Don't talk nonsense. No matter how well Mu Lingfeng develops, he can't compare to Qian Zile's title of Yongsheng Crown Prince. I don't think Qin Lanyin would be so stupid as to lose the watermelon for the sesame seeds."

Another netizen expressed his opinion.

"Anyway, I think Qin Lanyin is a bit materialistic." Another netizen said bluntly.

Her words were echoed by some people.

Then, people who supported Mu Lingfeng and opposed Qin Lanyin started to curse each other online.

"These netizens are so annoying." Qin Lanyin was furious when she saw an ordinary message of hers become a hot topic.

After thinking about it, she sent a message to Mu Lingfeng.

"Mr. Mu, you're on the hot search." Seeing this hot search, Ma Jianbo was shocked and quickly ran into Mu Lingfeng's office to tell him the situation.

Just after returning from another trip, Ma Jianbo heard about the opening of the flagship store yesterday. Before he could figure out how to help Mu Lingfeng and Yun Jin repair their relationship, the hot search came again.

"What's hot search?" Mu Lingfeng was taking a nap on the sofa. When he heard Ma Jianbo's words, he slowly opened his eyes.

"It was Miss Qin who sent a message tagging you. She probably meant well, but now that netizens have made such a fuss, many people online are saying that you and Miss Qin are a couple."

Ma Jianbo handed the phone to Mu Lingfeng and explained.

After reading a few comments, Mu Lingfeng immediately ordered: "Have Qin Lanyin remove this message immediately."

At this time, Mu Lingfeng had only one thought in his mind, that is, he must not let Yun Jin see those comments on the Internet. Those netizens were really looking for trouble, actually saying that he and Qin Lanyin were a couple. At this time, wouldn't it be adding fuel to the fire?

"Mr. Mu, I'm afraid you have to speak up for this." Ma Jianbo said in embarrassment after hearing Mu Lingfeng's order.

Mu Lingfeng thought about it and nodded slightly.

When Mu Lingfeng picked up his phone, he saw the message Qin Lanyin had sent him before: "Lingfeng, please come forward to clarify. We are just good friends. I don't want people to misunderstand."

I don't want to be misunderstood.

Mu Lingfeng quickly called Qin Lanyin: "Lanyin, please delete the message you sent before."

"Why?" Although she didn't want people to misunderstand her relationship with Mu Lingfeng, Qin Lanyin still felt a little uncomfortable when she heard Mu Lingfeng say that.

Between her and Mu Lingfeng, it is always Qin Lanyin who takes the initiative. When will it be Mu Lingfeng's turn to boss her around?

"Didn't you say before that you didn't want people to misunderstand me? I also don't want people to misunderstand me. It would be best if you deleted the message."

Hearing Qin Lanyin's question, Mu Lingfeng said impatiently.

"But, if we do that, won't those netizens say that we are guilty?" Qin Lanyin still disagreed with Mu Lingfeng's approach.

"If that's the case, then I can only ask the company's public relations department to intervene and hold a press conference to explain the matter to everyone. I hope you can be there at that time."

Mu Lingfeng thought about it and made another decision.

"That's still not good, Ling Feng. How about you take the initiative to declare online that we are just good friends, and we don't have the kind of relationship they think we have."

Qin Lanyin pondered for a moment, but still did not agree to Mu Lingfeng's arrangement. She wanted to leave a way out for herself. This matter could only be explained by Mu Lingfeng himself, which would be in the best interests of her.

Thinking of Yunjin, Mu Lingfeng reluctantly agreed to Qin Lanyin's conditions.

I knew that Mu Lingfeng would never refuse any request of mine.

After hanging up the phone, Qin Lanyin smiled with satisfaction.

Soon, Mu Lingfeng issued a statement under the message, drafted by Ma Jianbo, saying that he and Qin Lanyin were just good friends and there was no improper relationship between them. If anyone spread rumors or slandered them again, he would definitely take legal measures to protect his reputation.

After Mu Lingfeng's statement was issued, no one on the Internet dared to continue talking about it, and the matter was settled.

After lunch, Yun Jin returned to the office and couldn't suppress her curiosity. She wanted to see the progress of Qin Lanyin's message.

After seeing the statement posted by Mu Lingfeng, Yun Jin's heart sank. In order to protect Qin Lanyin, Mu Lingfeng actually took the initiative to make a statement online. He truly loved Qin Lanyin.

Yun Jin put down the phone and was about to start working when she saw Mu Lingfeng walking out of the office: "Secretary Yun, come with me to a cocktail party after get off work."

Yun Jin nodded and responded, "Okay."

When Assistant Matt was around, he was the one who accompanied Mu Lingfeng to social events. Today, when he was not around, Mu Lingfeng asked me to accompany him.

At this time, Yunjin missed Ma Jianbo's days in the company very much.

After get off work, when Yun Jin saw Ma Jianbo sitting in the co-pilot seat, she said excitedly: "Assistant Matt, when did you come back? How come I didn't know?"

Under Mu Lingfeng's unfriendly gaze, Ma Jianbo looked at Yun Jin and responded, "Lunch time. I have something to do this afternoon."

Yun Jin nodded and reluctantly sat in the back row with Mu Lingfeng.

Why did Mu Lingfeng ask me to go with him even though Assistant Matt was here?

Yun Jin kept thinking about this question while the car was driving.

When they were almost at their destination, Mu Lingfeng's cell phone rang. He picked it up, looked at it, and then put the phone back.

Qin Lanyin, why is she calling at this time?

Staring out the window, Mu Lingfeng frowned slightly.
